Chic Crochet

If crochet immediately makes you think of a grandmotherly hobby, think again. This bohemian and artistic fabric is an absolute must-have for the season. While you may not associate this thick yarn style with summer, the chic and fashionable fabric has holes or “loops,” making it an ideal material to wear in heat.
Here are the top ways to wear crochet this season:
